Best Restaurants, Must Try Places in Atherton

"If you’re after a ‘restaurant with a view’ in Manchester, you can’t do better than 20 Stories. Found on the 19th floor of No 1. Spinningfields, the entire city …"

"For small plates and spot-on cocktails, pay a visit to Maray on Bold Street. The buzzing vibe starts here in the afternoon and carries on well into the evening, as friends cosy up in the intimate restaurant digging into burrata, roasted cauliflower with pomegranate and lamb koftas. Arrive early for a seat at the bar and order the Whip Royale – a concoction of cucumber gin, prosecco and fragrant lavender, or keep it classic with a gin and tonic, each perfectly paired with a garnish."

"There are two branches of Maray to choose from, Bold Street and Allerton Road and this scrumptious creation is fresh off the spring menu. The salted chocolate and bergamot tart with chai ice cream is not only very, very delicious-looking, it’s completely vegan too."

"Both Maray restaurants serve a range of vegan meals, with a menu dedicated solely to vegan dishes. Vegan options include falafel, persian bread and muhammara and arabic flatbread and hummus. 91 Bold St, Liverpool L1 4HF and 57 Allerton Rd, Liverpool L18 2DA"

"What to expect: Delicious Indian small plates featuring the Mowgli Chip Butty. For flavoursome vegetarian dishes that you won’t forget anytime soon, a visit to Mowgli Street Food is a must. Perfectly prepared to bring you just the right amount, choose from dishes including the tantalising Yoghurt Chat Bombs, Treacle Tamarind Fries and of course Mowgli’s delicious Chip Butty."

"Nisha Katona, curry evangelist extraordinaire, started a voyage a few years ago to bring a little bit of India to Liverpool with her restaurant called Mowgli. One chat bomb at a time. To say she was successful in doing so, would be an understatement."

"Among India’s most popular desserts is Gulab Jamun: dumplings soaked in rose flavoured sugar syrup with a scoop of ice cream to the side."

"This laid-back Piccadilly street food favourite has canteen and booth-style seating, and bespoke artwork nodding to Manchester’s industrial heritage. The informal menu is entirely vegetarian: think spiced okra fries, or bundo chaat, a delightful mixture of crunchy samosa pastry, chickpeas, tamarind chutney and turmeric noodles. An excellent beer list showcases local breweries."

"Available all week long, Bundobust’s pancake offering sees them put a sweet twist on the traditional dosa. These mango puree and rosewater rice pancakes are £5 and come served with shrikhand (a sweetened cardamom yoghurt), mango ras, pistachio, and pomegranate."

"With more than a decade of faithful service to West Didsbury under its natty Nepalese belt, the Gurkha Grill is now reaping the benefits of an extensiv ..."

"From Masterchef: The Professional’s winner 2014 and Michelin Star chef, Anton Piotrowski comes Röski. Located on one of Liverpool’s most famous streets- Rodney street, Röski is an intimate restaurant where big flavours and innovative cooking techniques take centre stage. PLEASE NOTE - We require 48..."

"Serving up a modern British menu by MasterChef: The Professionals’ winner Anton Piotrowski, this Liverpudlian restaurant has gone from strength to strength since opening. Expect playful rifts on classics and a warm, welcoming dining room."

"Time Out says Roski’s menu “makes inventive use of homegrown British ingredients. Everything’s immaculately presented - so bring your camera.” It's not the only "best of" list Roski appears on. 16 Rodney St, Liverpool L1 2TE"

"The nation loves a PizzaExpress and we’re delighted to have one of their stylish restaurants right here at Lowry Outlet."

"22/05/2021: Good service received for our family shopping which included lunch in cafe rouge after some much needed retail therapy. 20/05/2021: Fantastic food, served by Heather. Was a wonderful evening."

"With plenty to do including a children’s play area, walled botanic garden and the Grade II listed Curator’s Lodge, everyone in the family is catered for at Wavertree Botanic Gardens. This 19th century park played a part in the early cultural life in Liverpool, before its botanic glasshouses were bombed in World War 2. The Gardens were first opened in 1836 and remain an important part of the city’s history today."

"New Bird Street oasis, Botanical Garden is a green space dedicated to the appreciation of Gin. Yes, we know it’s winter and this venue is currently closed, but how could we not include it in a guide to Gin?!. We are counting down the days until its return in spring 2020."

"A seasonal pop-up bar that specialises in gin cocktails, this is one of the city's coolest summer bars. There's a fine selection of beers if you prefer, and a kitchen that serves excellent Mexican food; in rainy..."

"While the country house at Hare Hill Hall is privately owned, the garden is cared for by the National Trust. The star here is the walled garden, a blaze of colour in early-summer when the rhododendrons and azaleas burst into flower. There are also uncommon varieties of poppy, iris, lupin, phlox and echinacea."

"What’s boss about Liverpool’s brewery scene is the sheer scope of it. You’ve got your microbreweries and then you’ve got a renovated rubber factory transformed into an 18,000 hectolitre brewery capable of producing more than three million pints. The latter goes by the name of Love Lane Brewery and houses a family of beers and gins under one roof, designed to keep the city’s rich brewing heritage alive."

"If you care about craft beer, you care about the process of it being made. Love Lane Brewery is a Liverpool bar that lets you enjoy your drink right in the heart of it all with an on-site brewery and kitchen. With delicious meals and an open layout, there's nothing to close you off to this awesome spot."
